Hi all,
So not just any shelf, but a mantelpiece. Well, ok then, its an competition project for the forth coming 11th Australian Narrow Gauge Convention. In the modelling competition this year, the special category was "The Mantelpiece Challenge" (read more abouit it here - http://cngg.org.au/The_Mantelpiece_C..._OZNGC2013.pdf ).
So I sat down with my plank of wood (or mantelpiece for a fancier word), and started to play with what I could achieve with O scale scenery in just 10" of depth. It was fun experimenting, and this has been useful for future plans as well, with getting a good feel for some of my past scenery efforts combined in a more accurate rendition of the prototype I will aim to capture in my home layout (once work begins on a new studio space for it, but thats another topic).
So here's a sneak peak of some photo fun on the iPhone and some filters and effects tweaking. I will probably post a few more pics of this after the Convention is over.
Cheers,
Dan Pickard
